Silliest vegan diet question you've ever been asked?!
"So how do vegans celebrate birthdays?"
I looked at her very seriously and said, "We don't. We're like the Jehovah's Witnesses in that respect."
Then had to tell her I was joking.
(: (tee hee)
Answers: I chose not to eat a nonvegan birthday cake at a party a few days ago, and someone asked me (seriously):

"Do vegans eat sugar?" (my grandmother, who is from Arkansas and had never heard of a vegan before me).
Vegans can use alternatives to make cakes for such occasions. There are special recipe books on this such as "Mmm..Yummy cakes" which you can get for ￡2.99 and "Simple treats: A wheat free, dairy free guide to scrumptious baked goods" both from the Viva Vegetarian website:

Many people ask rather ridiculous questions about veganism, but we live with the same sort of diet as everyone else just a less milky, eggy one.
"I only eat meatballs so that means I am a vegetarian like you"
"you are vegetarian?Does that mean you do not eat at mcdonalds?Oh my good".
Those are the stupidist.
lol!
vegans eat tofu and drink good soymilk. soda and many other snacks. LIke pasta and many vegtables and u can make pankake but with soymilk. Chips and oatmeal dont test on animals.
"So, what do you do for protein?"
"Oh, I'm allergic to protein. I can't have any protein at all. I have to avoid all foods that contain it, like nuts, beans, grains and seeds. Even a lot of other vegetables contain a fair bit too, so I really have to watch what I eat. You wouldn't believe all the things that I can't eat!"
i'm a vegetarian (second time around).....it may not be the silliest question but i get SO sick of being asked, "how do you get enough protein?" and "didn't God put animals here for us to eat?" those drive me nuts. i mean really, how many times are we going to have to answer that in our lifetime??
i think the silliest question i've been asked is simply, "what do vegetarians eat if they don't eat meat?" i mean seriously......does this person wander around eating only hotdogs and ribs?? we eat everything you do except meat, sherlock. ugh. ridiculous.....
sorry i don't have more entertaining questions, lol....i was a vegetarian a long time ago and now i'm doing it again, so i haven't been asked a ton of questions yet.
"hey wanna go to mickey d's chick?"
"nahhh i dont eat meat."
"girl you are crazy! i can't live with meat! What do you eat anyway and what the hell is a vegan?"
"A vegan is a person who doesnt consume meat or dairy products(sigh)"
"Well what do you eat?"
"Vegetables, fruits, and vegan alternatives."
"girl you are gonna die."
now almost all the 100 people who ask me this question daily are fat azzes they need to lay off the pork lol!
stupid meat eaters lol i guarantee you if you would just put the chicken leg down you wouldnt be 300 pounds + lol.
"Do vegan girls spit or swallow? I was just wondering, because they're so thin"
Stupid.
